U13 Wiki (different than the soldat wiki)
« on: January 16, 2007, 02:49:07 pm »
I'm just calling out to U13 customers and members who would like to help me start documenting information about U13, the users, the rentals/control panel, and anything else related to U13

This is not intended to compete with http://wiki.soldat.nl, this is completely different

I installed the wiki a few weeks ago but haven't had any time to put information in.  Furthermore, I'm not as familiar with mediawiki markup nearly as much as I know some people here are

The wiki is at http://wiki.u13.net.  I really want to document all information needed to use http://rentals.u13.net as a customer.  If you are interested in helping to document that, contact me (or post here and I'll contact you) and I'll give you the demo username and password.  I would like all information about the control panel to be in a separate wiki category.

If anyone here is familiar with U13SSS I would appreciate some documentation about that as well.

If you don't know much of anything about U13 but know how to create wiki categories and format pages in a standardized way, feel free to help out with administrative tasks like that.

I'm hoping to start putting more information online to take some of the load off of myself so that I can help customers, members, and community members with more specific and detailed problems and have the normal questions answered by this documentation.

Thank you for your help, I'm sure there are quite a few of you who can find some time to help out with this project.  Please feel free to ask here or e-mail me if you have any questions.

edit: and feel free to make a proper logo for it

OOOH, I'd be glad to help out with this, writing articles for it mainly. So it is all about the U13 servers in general?

it is about everything I said it was about in the first post ;) :

-- Servers
-- Stats
-- U13SSS
-- Rentals
-- The control panel and its pages
  -- A description of all of the settings (see the Settings page I created)
  -- A description of how to start and stop the servers.
-- Important: a description of how to upload maps.  There is a very specific way that maps need to be zipped up.  I can refine the details on this
-- A new image/logo
-- History of U13 (I'll take care of most of this)
-- Formatting on all pages.  Sections for "Related Pages" and "External Links" for all pages that should have them
-- Anything else related to U13

I know a great deal about the MediaWiki program, categorizing pages and page formatting.

I could also help create a logo for it, or give you logo ideas.

I am willing to help out in whatever way I can.

To reduce the work you would have to do, I have added a contact page for me:

I've just added the rules to the wiki, and i plan to elaborate on what they mean and what each term means. If anyone can think of a better way to group them, the page is here: http://wiki.u13.net/index.php/Rules

thanks.

I think you should move that page to Category:U13 Server Administrators, then on the user pages make sure they have this at the bottom: [[Category:U13 Server Administrators]].

What I meant was, click the tab 'Move' and move the admin list to Category:U13 Server Administrators.
Then, whenever you click the category at the bottom of an admin's page it goes there, instead of to an empty page.

I like the idea, but, no offense, isn't it simply better to add those things to the SoldatWiki and not to create several Wiki's?

I want a nice answer!
Hmm, any idea what to write here?

No, this is all detailed information about how U13 Rentals customers use the control panel as well as other stuff.  This is like documentation for U13, it isn't appropriate for the Soldat wiki.

That is like saying "Why don't you just take everything from the Soldat wiki and put it in Wikipedia"
